Shot this for the healthy food challenge but ended up using another shot. I really liked this picture though and thought it would make a great picture for my portfolio. When printed out this is an AWESOME picture. Milk on his mouth is real milk and I had to teach him how to get it there but it wasn't as thick as I had hoped for. I found out after the challenge that milk isn't really used for this that it's something else much thicker. So in processing I made the mustache thicker with a white brush and lowered the opacity. Thanks everyone for the comments I think this is one of my most favorite photos I have ever done.

The editing really helped capture the feel and punch of the "Got Milk" ads. Love what the desaturation did to this composition overall. It has an ol' tyme posterboard feel/mood to it. Also the reddish tones in the skin now vanish in the final product such that the skin tones are now more even and one notices the milk mustache all the more. Nice job in 'thickening' the mustache too.

I LOVE the edit!! I could definitely see this as an actual milk ad. Perfect!

I like the way you posted both shots in one frame for us. Your edit made an artsy looking poster from the original shot. The expression makes the shot for me.
I understand about the thin milk thing and I know who has the answer to the question about how to make the milk into a mustache. That would be alanfreed, have a look at his profile shot.

I always wondered how they got that milk to show up so white :) I like the ad, it is a good edit for that shot.
